چکیده

The paper considers various relaying strategies for wireless networks. We comparatively discuss and analyse direct transmission, conventional “multihop” relaying, and the novel concepts of cooperative relaying from the viewpoint of system level performance. While conventional relaying exploits pathloss savings, cooperative relaying additionally takes two inherent advantages of relay-based systems into account: the ability to exploit the broadcast nature of the wireless medium, and the diversity offered by the relay channel. Following a description of these concepts, we analyse the performance of such systems in an exemplary manner for power-controlled cellular and ad hoc CDMA systems. The resulting power savings and capacity improvements suggest that cooperative relaying may constitute an interesting candidate for future cellular and ad hoc network architectures.

Uplink User-Assisted Relaying Deployment in Cellular Networks

We use stochastic geometry to analyze the performance of a partial decode-and-forward (PDF) relaying scheme applied in a user-assisted relaying setting, where an active user relays data through another idle user in uplink cellular communication. We present the geometric model of a network deploying user-assisted relaying and propose two geometric cooperation policies for fast and slow fading ch...

Cooperative Subcarrier Allocation for an OFDM Relaying System with Grouped Users

In this article, the problem of downlink subcarrier allocation in a cooperative wireless multiuser OFDM system is investigated. We consider a single-cell where all the users are paired in cooperative groups. The mobile users in each group amplify and forward their partner’s data stream using a time division protocol. Based on the capacity contribution from the relaying terminal, a new parameter...

Opportunistic nonorthogonal amplify-and-forward cooperative communications

Introduction: Cooperative communications [1] create diversity gains for network users with a single antenna. The classical cooperative scheme consists of two orthogonal time slots (TS): a broadcasting TS for a source (S) to transmit its signal to the intended destination (D), and a relaying TS for a relay (R) to retransmit S’s signal to D. There are amplify-and-forward (AF) and decode-and-forwa...

Performance Analysis of cooperative SWIPT System: Intelligent Reflecting Surface versus Decode-and-Forward

In this paper, we explore the impacts of utilizing intelligent reflecting surfaces (IRS) in a power-splitting based simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (PS-SWIPT) system and compare its performance with the traditional decode and forward relaying system. To analyze a more practical system, it is also assumed that the receiving nodes are subject to decoding cost, and they are on...

Performance Analysis of Hybrid Coded Cooperation in Wireless Networks

Relay-assisted transmission schemes for wireless networks are continuing to grow because of their potential of providing the benefits of space diversity. This paper applies hybrid relaying protocols to coded cooperation which is a combined scheme of user cooperation and channel codes. The hybrid relaying protocol adaptively uses the amplify-and-forward and decode-and-forward whether a relay dec...
